China secured the gold in Olympic trampoline (tra-bob-o-leen!) today, but I didn't catch a second of it. If only you could have a few more wipeouts of this quality and you could count on my viewership. Apparently this spotter agrees, as he did nothing to cushion her fall. In general, the body count for these Olympics has failed to live up to expectations, but there's time yet. The Chinese were none too happy with people questioning the authenticity of the opening ceremony. Nothing fake about that ammo dump outside the Bird's Nest.

that would have been awesome if "Let the bodies hit the floor" by Drowning Pool was playing in the background.

If trampoline is an Olympic sport, then I'm going to propose "Slip and Slide" and "Big Wheel Race" to the IOC.

Good thing he's wearing a blazer, that seems to help him with his job.

Did you know China is proud of these Olympics?I don't think NBC tells me that enough.

Jesus Christ. Every night before I jerk off to my Kerry Strug poster I pray for a gymnast to fall out of the sky into my arms, and fuck-all happens. And now my wish comes true for this taint-breath, and he couldn't have done a worse job catching her if she'd been a pig slathered in grease. It's a cruel, cruel world.
